5 secrets you should not reveal to everyone

Happy are the ones, who are not much socialized and at least not social with socially sick people. Talking about yourself is a great approach to build a relationship but take a minute to rethink before revealing in and out about you. Sharing everything about yourself can be a cause why people can judge you. Remember, sharing information can lead to misunderstandings.

Family issues: Whether it’s your entire family or your blood relatives, keep the complications within the family. Don’t misuse people’s trust. You’ve been shared those secrets because you are close to these people, but they haven’t given you permission to spread them around to everyone in your social group. They confided in you, and breaking that is the worst thing you could possibly do.

Future goals: This is a fact that you’re much more likely to achieve your long-term goals if you don’t share them with others. If you keep your goals to yourself, however, there is a higher chance of achieving them. And once you have attained your life goals then, feel free to tell the whole world about it.

Past stories: We all have bad stories about our personal life. It’s always best to let go of them and discuss as little as you can in public. People prefer interacting with positive conversation partners, those who have interesting perceptions to provide. Try to focus on the present and you’ll find that more people will be keen to talk to you.

Good deeds: Good deeds always attract good karma. Once you boast about something good that you’ve done, you’re making it all about yourself, thus nullifying the good that you’ve already created. When you do a benevolent deed, you want the attention to be on the people or the cause that you’re helping and not on yourself.

Financial situation: Money is never a nice topic to talk about in public because you never know what other financial situation looks like. Money and knowledge about finances can shift relationships irreparably. Once your financial state becomes public knowledge, people just start viewing at you differently without being able to help it.

We like to think that others are interested in every aspect of our personal lives, but unfortunately, that’s rarely the case. There are discussions that you should only have in certain environments, and others you shouldn’t have at all. Learn to make that difference to make sure you don’t turn into an over-sharer. Staying an optimist is very important in this process.

For a fresh start to student life

Schools and colleges have started and now is the perfect time for a fresh start. Remember, last year there were a couple of things which you thought you would do or won’t? In case you don’t remember, here is a checklist for you to rock your year!

Time to making some ground rules

No TV and social media until you complete your homework. Keep your phone away while studying, even better give to any elder of your house, ofcourse you can lock it though. When you make a ground list of things in advance, you are more prone to follow them up later.

Create a morning routine

Find out how much time you need to get up, freshen up, have your breakfast and get ready. Then you know exactly when you should get up and when you’ll be late.

Goal setting

Set some concrete goals for this year, like giving more time to maths, practicing football more, completing projects before time, etc. Write them down and stick in your room at a place where you’d keep a check on it.

No compromise with sleep

Scrolling down your Instagram feeds might be tempting, especially at night when you’re all alone. But the hard reality is that you do regret it the next morning or day. Sleep on time and when you would wake up fulfilling your sleep quota, you’d be ready to conquer the world.

Get some interesting stationery

If you’re a girl, invest in some cute stationery like boxes, pens, pencils, diaries, notebooks, etc and if you are a boy how about your favourite avenger or marvel hero? This will make studying and making notes fun and exciting.

Planning and Journaling

One of the best things about being a student is setting up your planner, Isn’t it? If you haven't got the bullet journal craze, now is a perfect time. There are plenty of videos on how to create, design and maintain a journal on Youtube.

You also have to find your ways of relieving stress as it is an inseparable part of student life. It could be talking to your best friend, going for a walk, listening to music, or anything else that is not much distracting and yet helps you feel relaxed.
